Kevin Andriamahefa was the shortest stack coming back from break and shoved from middle position for exactly 200,000. Small blind Michael Bartholomew asked for a count and then reshoved upon finding out it was ten big blinds. The big blind folded right away.
Kevin Andriamahefa:
Michael Bartholomew:
The made Bartholomew the heavy favorite but the on the turn was a scare card. The on the river wasn't one of the cards Andriamahefa was looking for and he exited the tournament in 24th place winning $19,000. The remaining 23 players are guaranteed $24,640 from here on out.
Scott Stewart was the one opening the action with a raise to 32,000 from middle position. Big blind Kevin Andriamahefa called to see a flop heads-up.
Andriamahefa check-called a bet of 44,000 on before leading 50,000 on the turn. Andriamahefa had just 209,000 behind at this point but opted to fold after Stewart raised to 128,000.
Michael Gentili started the day with 688,000 but dropped down to less than half of that. After winning an all in with ace-king vs the ace-ten of Scott Stewart, Gentili clawed his way back and is now in the thick of things again.
On a board reading , with about 200,000 in the middle already, Pedro Cabeca led out for 125,000. Gentili was in the cutoff and three-bet to 260,000. Cabeca thought about it for a moment and eventually called.
Gentili quickly tabled for the nut straight and Cabeca mucked his cards.
Adrian Mateos opened to 32,000 in middle position and got action from Marcin Kapkowski on his left, as well as the players on the button and in the big blind. Action checked to Mateos on the flop, and he bet 62,000. Only Kapkowski stuck around to see the turn. Mateos bet again, 115,000 this time. Kapkowski called and a made a four-flush on board. Mateos had less than pot left and opted to check. Kapkowski counted out enough to put Mateos all in then ultimately checked.
Mateos showed for a turned flush, but the river had given Kapkowski's a higher flush.
